Hardware Installation This appendix describes hardware installation. Sections include: • Overview of Hardware Installation and Upgrading • Disassembling the Panel PC • Installing the 2.5" Hard Disk Drive (HDD) • Installing the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Terminal is high quality and reliable. However, it may contain few defective pixels which do not always illu- minate. With current technology, it is impossible to completely eliminate defective pixels. Advantech is actively working to improve this technology. Warning Do not remove the plastic rear cover until you have verified that no power is flowing within the panel PC.
Care Terminal before you upgrade your system. All procedures are illus- trated in Figure C-1. Unscrew the screws that secure the plastic rear cover, and then remove the cover. Unscrew the screws that secure the metal fan cover. Figure C.1: Disassembling the plastic rear cover of the POC-155 Appendix C...
(#1) from both sides of the HDD bracket. The HDD cable (1 x 44-pin to 1 x 44-pin) is next to the HDD bracket. Connect the HDD cable to the POC-155. Make sure that the red wire corresponds to Pin 1 on the connector (CN6), which is labeled on the board.
C.4 Installing the Central Processing Unit (CPU) The Point of Care Terminal's central processing unit (CPU) can be upgraded to improve system performance. The Point of Care Terminal provides one 479-pin socket (Socket 479). The CPU must come with an attached heat sink and CPU fan to prevent overheating.
